...........................................................................

VISION

...........................................................................

[ Begin with sharing for one or two minutes the purpose behind T-Groups. You can do this by answering the question, "What is discipleship and why do we do it?", by sharing a Scripture about discipleship (such as Matthew 28:18-20, 2 Timothy 2:2, etc.), or asking them to share in their own words why they think discipleship is important and how it might lead to transformation ]

...........................................................................

FELLOWSHIP (about 30 minutes)

...........................................................................

1) What is a high and a low in your life since the last time we met?

2) What is something God has been highlighting to you through ADT this week?

3) How did your spiritual disciplines go this week? Let's fill out our accountability charts and recite our Scripture memorization passage.

4) Is there any sin you need to bring to the light so that God can bring healing in that area?

REVELATION 2:1-7

Message to Ephesus

1 “To the angel of the church in Ephesus write:

The One who holds the seven stars in His right hand, the One who walks among the seven golden lampstands, says this:

2 ‘I know your deeds and your labor and perseverance, and that you cannot tolerate evil people, and you have put those who call themselves apostles to the test, and they are not, and you found them to be false;

3 and you have perseverance and have endured on account of My name, and have not become weary.

4 But I have this against you, that you have left your first love.

5 Therefore, remember from where you have fallen, and repent, and do the deeds you did at first; or else I am coming to you and I will remove your lampstand from its place—unless you repent.

6 But you have this, that you hate the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.

7 The one who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who overcomes, I will grant to eat from the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of God.’
